Captain Melty and the Minions! [Oppressor 1.2.1.6]

Hi All!

Long-time lurker here. 1st try at a unique build (guide). 1st post ever.

I couldn’t find a build like this anywhere, so I made one and I think it turned out pretty cool (and I thought the name was great). Might be ill advised timing seeing how we have some big changes coming ‘soon’ but eh…shoot me.

So let’s get to it.

Basic idea is to have a couple pets to keep the bad guys somewhat distracted, pile on as much poison/acid RR as you can and spam AoM shield like its going out of style.

As soon as you hit a mob, throw down a Rav Earth and start spamming. I hope you like green explosions and bad guys running around confused. The bigger the mob the more fun this plays out. If you get in a pinch hit Mark of Torment and Ascencion and do some kiting.

The real spamming key is crafting Conduit of Divine Whispers ammy until it rolls ‘-2.5 sec skill recharge’ for AoM. (I think it took like 12-13 rolls)

There are a couple MI that some might find annoying to farm.

Crimson’s Vile Scepter is pretty key (IMO). I couldn’t figure out how to make GT stack the damage buff, but in-game it’s adding like 36k poison to AoM. I think it took me like 30ish runs to drop those mods (honestly prob got lucky).

Grava 'Thuls Legguards are kinda tough (Still haven’t found a great pair).

Basilisk Fang helps a ton with AoM ADctH and Crit%

2 out of 3 pets are invincible and really help the RR (keep an eye on the Blight Fiend at higher lvls, he dies a lot).

I’m not a great player, but this build will clear Ultimate pretty easy. I can’t say much for a real SR push, I think I’ve gotten to SR20.

The GT isn’t 100% but its pretty close. There are a couple more components and augments to place, but that’s the stuff you mod anyway based on what you find.

If any of you Whiz Kids can figure out a better set up, feel free to tweak/change and let me know!

I’ve been playing for a while (800 hrs), followed a few great guides, looked at a lot but mainly really enjoy this game.

Thanks a lot to all of you who help make this game great! Hope you like the build!
